*'''Redirect/merge''' - Looks real to me. Its certainly a Fringe topic within economics, and probably shouldn't be covered in any depth in an article like [[Fractional reserve banking]], but we do have an article about Fisher's proposals, such as [[Full-reserve banking]] and [[Chicago plan]]. This article could redirect to Fisher, or better, to [[Chicago plan]]. To me it seems that most of the citations to this paper, and there are a lot, couches the paper in a discussion of Fisher's ideas and isn't really ''about'' the paper. I don't think the paper passes NBOOK, and we don't usually have articles about every academic manuscript that has a dozen or two citations. I could maybe be convinced that the subject is suitable for an encyclopedia, I think better would be some energy put into those other articles as merge destinations.

*'''Merge''' to [[Chicago plan]] where it is already briefly mentioned as a followup proposal. If the editors of the [[Journal of Law and Economics]] did not think it is a hoax, who am I to argue. [https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.1086/467295?journalCode=jle Irving Fisher and the 100 Percent Reserve Proposal] ("In the fall of 1938, joined by Paul Douglas, Frank Graham, Earl Hamilton, Willford King, and Charles Whittlesey, he [Fisher] drafted a five- page statement, 'A Program for Monetary Reform.' During the winter it was widely circulated, and in March 1939 it was sent to the president ..."). Including the full text of the memo is a copyright violation, however, isn't it? I flagged it but didn't blank it out of indecision. [[Special:Contributions/24.151.116.12|24.151.116.12]] ([[User talk:24.151.116.12|talk]]) 19:02, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
*'''Keep'''. Not a hoax - [The Chicago Plan & New Deal Banking Reform https://books.google.co.il/books?id=izO25SyQU9QC&pg=PA158&dq=%22A+Program+for+Monetary+Reform%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjrob7LgMHZAhWMzaQKHX7bCckQ6AEIPDAE#v=onepage&q=%22A%20Program%20for%20Monetary%20Reform%22&f=false], [http://fullreservebanking.com/Irving%20Fisher%20and%20the%20100%20Percent%20Reserve%20Proposal.pdf Allen, William R. "Irving Fisher and the 100 percent reserve proposal." The Journal of Law and Economics 36.2 (1993): 703-717.]. Seems to be widely referred to. Merge is possible to [[Chicago plan]] - but it would require a re-titling there, and extensive work.[[User:Icewhiz|Icewhiz]] ([[User talk:Icewhiz|talk]]) 11:57, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
